I'm no fan of Monsanto, but I came to that conclusion some years ago. Schmeiser has travelled the world telling his story, but parts of it simply don't add up..
As the Green Party member once said, "whenever I hear the words GE, I reach for my Schmeisser."

I totally get that science for profit is unnerving.
At least we are not America.
"Great science! Can we weaponise it?"

Rumour has it that Sue Bradford may try and start just such a party

I would imagine this might depend on how hungry you are, Yes? In a sentence, you just illustrated all the problems I have with the Green movement.
Until the Green party fronts up with some tangible, real world solutions to how we feed, cloth, employ, and allow to prosper seven-ten billion human beings on a planet that isn't overheating you are left with the uncomfortable feeling that we are dealing with movement that would rather allow to come to pass a Malthusian catastrophe that would make Pol Pot's Year Zero look like a vicar's tea party than adopt technology that would prevent it.The thing the Greens can't seem to quite grasp is technology and science got us to where we are today, and like it or not we can't let go of that particular tiger's tail.

But this is getting nasty
Riddle me this: What have media witch trial victims Chris Carter and Peter Ellis got in common?

Tom, have you ever been to a roller derby bout?
A friend of mine keeps threatening to make me go to watch her, but I am uncertain as to if I wouldnt be scandalised at the open displays of common vulgarity that appears to be one of the attractions of the sport to its participants. I really need to get along and have a watch to make my mind up.
I'll probably end up loving it.
